As a reminder, Tribal Nations receiving over $30 million
from the State and Local Fiscal Recovery Fund (SLFRF) must submit their Project and Expenditure Report today, October 31, 2023. This Project and Expenditure Report is due for the period of July 31, 2023 through September 30, 2023. On September 27, 2023, Treasury released an updated Compliance and Reporting Guidance for the SLFRF, which includes revisions to subrecipient Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) reporting requirements. Beginning with the October 2023 Project and Expenditure Report, subrecipients reported without a UEI will require recipients to select a justification for the missing UEI for the reported subrecipient. The justifications for a missing UEI for the reported subrecipient include—
- Subrecipient facing delay in obtaining UEI from the U.S. General Services Administration;
- Recipient was delayed in collecting a UEI from its subrecipient due to recipient’s internal control issue and recipient must describe the internal control issue and planned corrective action; or
- Recipient was unable to contact subrecipient:
- Services the subrecipient provided were completed after April 4, 2022 and recipient is continuing to work to collect its subrecipient’s UEI; or
- Services the subrecipient provided were completed prior to April 4, 2022.
